Designer notes
The Coup has been in my must try restaurants here in Calgary. A popular spot for vegans. When I was called to photograph at the restaurant I was enthralled for the opportunity to photograph their beautiful and delicious dishes.
Photography – Upon arriving at the location I was amazed by the mix of mood lighting and natural lighting; thanks to their giant windows. A great spot to photograph with a dramatic feel. I knew the pops of colours their dishes present so I used my Pentax FA 50mm 2.8 Macro, the beautiful mix of colours render nicely with this lens while stay razor sharp.
